Charlemagne is dead, the lands he once ruled broken and divided. The kingdoms of the west lie undefended in the shadows of empires. From the windswept lands to the north, across the icy seas, comes a new threat. God save us from the fury of the Northmen.

I think I'll try my hand at a character. Is it possible to make a knight/crusader type of character?

A knight yes, as cavalry was used extensively in the time of Charlemagne. But a mounted soldier back then was nothing like the later knights. It was less a status symbol and more about your role on the battlefield. My reading on the development of cavalry in medieval warfare shed a bit of light on it for me.

A crusader is impossible really, as the First Crusade didn't happen until 1095.

If anybody knows someone, we could do with a couple more vikings and maybe another Saxon.

Hey guys. Now that the site is back up following the momentary crash I'm hoping to start the roleplay at some point this week. In the first post I'll reveal a little of the main purpose, as well as clarify setting.

I know that it sometimes says in the character bio where your people are starting, but just to make things clear please comment where you're starting on this thread and a simple reason why your character is there. Just a reminder, our starting positions are Winchester (or Wintanceaster) in the Kingdom of Wessex, and Uppsala in the Kingdom of Svithjod (modern day Sweden).

Uppsala is good for Vilhjalma, might be a good place to find a new mercenary job. Can't be easy finding work when you're a one-armed berserker.

I'll probably start in Winchester. Probably as the houseman of a local noble.

Sounds great. I'm hoping to make the place descriptions as detailed as possible so you'll have a good idea of where to start :)

Hi all!

I'm probably going to start this on Thursday this week (the 3rd). Don't worry if you haven't submitted a character yet. The way things are going to play out it will most likely be very easy to write a new character in :)

If anyone does want to join before we start, we could really do with a couple more vikings!

I may create a couple of characters that anyone can direct and interact with in their pieces just to flesh things out. Any one else feel like lobbing in a throw-away character?
